Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Monday he will step down
from his job once the Liberals find someone to replace him. Now,
the leadership race is on, with all sorts of politicians in the
Liberal caucus and beyond feeling out whether they’ve got a shot
to succeed Trudeau.

The backdrop to all of this is U.S. president-elect Donald Trump
claiming he’ll use economic force to absorb Canada as a new
American state. On today’s episode, a top leadership contender
discusses why she’s considering a leadership bid.

Then, a White House correspondent for the New York Times explains
why China and Russia are watching the brewing fight between
Canada and the United States and shares his thoughts on how
Canadian officials can respond to Trump’s ongoing threats.

Finally, Trudeau’s planned resignation will cap off a long tenure
that transformed Canada on several fronts. How big were those
transformations? Catherine Cullen speaks to experts and analysts
from several areas about Trudeau’s legacy and whether his
policies will outlast his time in office.
